Marc:

It's very possible but so very tedious to set up.

OpenLDAP has a backend called "back-sql" which can map ldap entries  
to relational database tables. There's a lot of tips in the FAQ-O- 
Matic at www.openldap.org. However, they recommend Postgresql and  
include the foundations for getting started in that RDBMS.
